Robert F. Kennedy in NY court as he fights ballot-access suit claiming he doesn't live in the state

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s lawyers are defending him against a lawsuit that alleges he falsely claimed New York residency as he sought to get on the ballot in the state. The civil trial began Monday. The lawsuit alleges that Kennedy's nominating petition falsely said his residence was in New York’s northern suburbs while he actually lives in Los Angeles. Kennedy's lawyers say he's still very much a New Yorker. The suit seeks to invalidate his nominating petition. The case was brought by a super PAC led by supporters of Democratic President Joe Biden.
